    Tough stretch coming up. Only gimme game is Portland. The two away games at Utah won't be easy.

    Ok

    Two questions...

    1. Does Landale slow things down? I mean, JG has played well with him no?

    2. Does anyone actually think Alp is not at least as quick as Jock?

    Can't wait til Goon is back and puts this odd "he slows this down" narrative to bed.

    Jock isn't playing as many minutes. We have been playing a lot of minutes with a small lineup in Sengun's absence. And yes, even Jock moves better defensively. Don't confuse that with Alpi being a bad defender. Also, Jock doesn't have to do all the other things that take energy. He just runs. He runs until he is gassed and they sub him. They cannot do that with Alpi. That would be wasteful of Alpi's talent.
